Rules (2024-08-30)
- This is an English-language community. Comments should be in English. Posts can link to non-English news sources when providing a full-text translation in the post description. Automated translations are fine, as long as they don't overly distort the content.
- No links to misinformation or commercial advertising. When you post outdated/historic articles, add the year of publication to the post title. Infographics must include a source and a year of creation; if possible, also provide a link to the source.
- Be kind to each other, and argue in good faith. Don't post direct insults nor disrespectful and condescending comments. Don't troll nor incite hatred. Don't look for novel argumentation strategies at Wikipedia's List of fallacies.
- No bigotry, sexism, racism, antisemitism, dehumanization of minorities, or glorification of National Socialism.
- Be the signal, not the noise: Strive to post insightful comments. Add "/s" when you're being sarcastic (and don't use it to break rule no. 3).
- If you link to paywalled information, please provide also a link to a freely available archived version. Alternatively, try to find a different source.
- Light-hearted content, memes, and posts about your European everyday belong in !yurop@lemm.ee. (They're cool, you should subscribe there too!)
- Don't evade bans. If we notice ban evasion, that will result in a permanent ban for all the accounts we can associate with you.
- No posts linking to speculative reporting about ongoing events with unclear backgrounds. Please wait at least 12 hours. (E.g., do not post breathless reporting on an ongoing terror attack.)
(This list may get expanded when necessary.)
We will use some leeway to decide whether to remove a comment.
If need be, there are also bans: 3 days for lighter offenses, 14 days for bigger offenses, and permanent bans for people who don't show any willingness to participate productively. If we think the ban reason is obvious, we may not specifically write to you.
If you want to protest a removal or ban, feel free to write privately to the mods: @federalreverse@feddit.org, @poVoq@slrpnk.net, or @anzo@programming.dev.

i'm not gonna vouch for authenticity but mexican and texmex is pretty standard fare in pretty much any medium sized town (in Germany)
In Norway, taco is consumed every single Friday by pretty much everyone. We're crazy about it. I eat it all the time.
It's almost impossible to find good Mexican food though. Rumour has it a good shop has popped up in Oslo recently.
Our "taco" is a bastardization of tex-mex, which arrived in Norway in the 1980s and has lived a life of its own since. It is delicious, but calling it Mexican would be more than generous.
oh i know about the scandinavification of texmex.
my fave is my partner's "tacopaj". Absurd and absurdly delicious.
Holy shit - it seems like the Swedes are getting the upper hand! I have never heard of this monstrosity before. I am in awe.
we also have taco gratin, which is equally tasty
As an American, I like White People Tacos, and I'm not ashamed of it. I've had proper tacos, too, and they are amazing, but it's a lot easier to do White People Taco Night.
I'm going to say that's not true for Germany, at least not in the north.
Hm might depend on size? Maybe its too spicy for the northerners :)
